Recent News from Limassol. September, 2023

A couple of days ago, my client from America contacted me. She wrote to me that it was she who purchased my “Pray”.   I cannot forget the feelings I felt when I created this picture. I poured into it the prayers of millions of women on Earth who want the Kremlin to burn down and along with it the damned country to be wiped off its face.   Now my work is among the large Ann Favarella Collection hanging in a house in Philadelphia. I am grateful to Anna and my other clients for allowing me to feel needed and serve my service for the benefit of our Victory! Останні новини. Пару днів тому зі мною зв’язався моя клієнтка з Америки. Вона написала мені, що це вона придбала мою «Молітва». Я не можу забути тих почуттів, які відчував, коли створював цю картину. Я влила в нього молитви мільйонів жінок на Землі, які хочуть, щоб Кремль згорів, а разом з ним і стерта з обличчя проклята країна. Зараз моя робота є серед великої колекції Анн Фаварелла, що висить у будинку у Філадельфії. Я вдячни...

Friday news from Limassol. September 2023.

Image
What was notable this week? First, we visited Sylvia and enjoyed her art of preparing delicacies. I don’t have words to describe the amazing flavors of everything she cooked. This is truly true art. When opening galleries, it seemed to me that Lily needed art, that they needed to immerse themselves in the celebration of painting, and over time I realized that the most important thing for people is food. And the way and with what feeling it is presented is actually called art. The second news from emigration this week was that I finished a new job. I called it “When the War Ends.” In fact, after the shelling of our Odessa and my work, into which I put all my desire to protect my hometown from bombing, confusion began in my soul. I couldn’t work and couldn’t live without not working, so I resorted to my favorite pastime – peace through painting. What you will see is exactly my confusion. П’ятничні новини з Лімассолу. Що було цього тижня чудового? Перше, ми були в гостях у Сільвії та насо...

September in Odessa. 2018

Image
https://www.facebook.com/groups/461052681344642/posts/1453950965388137/ September in our city is perhaps the sweetest month of the year. Odesa residents love this time. The guests are leaving, and the weather and sea are making us happy. Children, our beloved George, all this makes our life full of tenderness and kindness. Walking along the embankment, even in not sunny weather, is filled with the indescribable smell of the Black Sea. Over the years I spent in Cape Town, I fell in love with the smell of the ocean, but it is completely different, in Odessa the sea smells like childhood. I believe with all my heart that we will have the opportunity to return home and breathe in this incomparable smell again. Вересень у Одесі. Вересень у нашому місті найбільший, мабуть солодкий місяць на рік. Одесити люблять цей час. Гості роз’їжджаються, а погода та море радують нас. Діти, наш любий Георгій, все це робить наше життя повною ніжністю та добром. Прогулянки набережною, навіть у не сонячну по...

Odessa 2018. Zoo with children.

Image
I have visited many zoos around the world, the most exotic of which was, of course, the Melbourne Zoo. But in fact, I really love our Odessa Zoo and am very glad that it has had very good management lately. Of course, I don’t go to the zoo myself in Odessa, but visiting it with our grandchildren is truly a very big holiday. Одеса 2018. Зоопарк з дітьми Я побувала в багатьох зоопарках світу, найекзотичнішим з них був, звичайно ж, Зоопарк Мельбурна. Але насправді я дуже люблю наш Одеський Зоопарк і дуже рада тому, що останнім часом у ньому дуже хороше керівництво. Сама до зоопарку я, звичайно ж, в Одесі не ходжу, а ось відвідування його з нашими онуками, це воістину дуже велике свято.

Marine Station. Hotel Odessa. September, 2023

Image
Tonight, a hotel that evoked a lot of emotions among Odesa residents was destroyed by enemy missiles. And I remember the days of the real Renaissance of the Odesa Marine Station. I remember the construction of the hotel and the construction of our beautiful Marine Art Gallery. In 1998, when everything had already begun its work, it was very, very worthy and beautiful. I understand those who stayed to live in cramped five-story apartments; of course, such luxury caused hatred. The hotel was wonderful. Spacious halls, glowing and sparkling lamps, decorative compositions, all this was done at the highest level. And it seems to me that the guests staying at the hotel felt good and cozy, especially in the evenings, since the view of the lights of the Odesa port cannot be compared in beauty with any other similar sight. You know that I dedicated the entire Sea Ocean project, which took place in the Marine Gallery, to these lights. The Hotel, the Gallery, and the Yacht Club, all created a fab...

Odesa. Gagarin Plateau. 2018

Image
http://binovskaya.com/odessa-gagarin-plateau-2018/ When we bought an apartment in Genuezskaya, our house was practically the only one on the Gagarin Plateau. The areas around the house were surrounded by greenery of parks of sanatoriums and recreation centers. Later, three candles were lined up, but still the sea was visible between them and it was even possible to observe the lunar path on the full moon. Then it was all seized by the construction company Kadr and others who attached themselves to them. The horizon towards the sea is now completely covered by high-rise buildings and the green mass of the Arcadia plateau has turned into a concrete jungle. We once had to live in the Kotovsky Village, and I must note, no matter what, that the infrastructure of the residential area was maintained there, parks were laid out, kindergartens and schools were built. There is complete chaos here. There are no kindergartens or schools. And construction companies promised people who purchased hous...

Marcel’s birthday is August 30, 2018.

Image
http://binovskaya.com/marcels-birthday-is-august-30-2018/ Earlier, I published a photo of Marcel against a background of sparkles, as if it were her birthday. But this turned out not to be the case, Sylvia wrote that these photos and these decorations were during her birthday celebration! Sorry for the mistake and I will now try to correct it. So it’s Marcel’s birthday! We celebrated her birthday in Arcadia on the clearing of the Arcadia Plaza Hotel – Sylvia had a wonderful picnic. The children had a great time in the open and pleasant air and it was very, very beautiful! День народження Марсель-30 серпня 2018 року. Раніше я опублікувала фото Марсель на тлі блискіток, начебто це її День народження. Але це виявилося не так, Сільвія написала, що ці фото та ці декорації були під час святкування її дня народження! Вибачте за помилку і я тепер намагатимуся виправити її. Отже, день народження Марсель! Ми відзначили її день народження в Аркадії на галявині готелю Аркадія Плаза-Сільвія влаштув...

2018, Odesa, summer, Bugaz and children.

Image
To be honest, I can’t imagine how people live who have no children and no grandchildren. Of course, they have a lot of time for self-improvement and enjoying life, but this is not for me. I enjoy my family, I love my grandchildren sincerely and irresponsibly, and I even admit that they may not like my such affection very much. Recently, I began to learn to abstract myself from my attachments – after all, they have their own lives and I should happily let them go. But in 2018 – they still need us and we can be completely satisfied with this. Summer in Odesa is wonderful, Bugaz is wonderful, and Odesa is unsurpassed! Одеса, літо, Бугаз та дітки. Якщо чесно сказати, то я не уявляю собі, як живуть люди, у яких немає дітей і немає онуків. Звичайно ж у них багато часу для самовдосконалення та насолоди життям, але це не на мене. Я насолоджуюсь своєю сім’єю, я щиро і безвідповідально люблю своїх онуків і навіть визнаю, що моя така прихильність може їм не дуже подобатися. Останнім часом я почал...
